This two-bedroom mid-terraced house on Oldham Road offers an affordable, freehold entry to homeownership close to Ashton town centre. At about 504 sq ft the layout is compact but practical: a living room with bay window, fitted kitchen/diner, two first-floor bedrooms and a family bathroom. Gas central heating, double glazing and an EPC rating of C help keep running costs down.
Outside there are small lawned gardens to front and rear plus off-street parking — useful for commuters and families who need easy access. The location benefits from frequent buses, quick routes to the M60 and proximity to Ashton/Mossley amenities, Tesco Express and local green spaces such as Daisy Nook Country Park.
The house will particularly suit first-time buyers or downsizers seeking manageable accommodation and a low council tax band. Expect a compact footprint and some dated internal features (notably the 1970s-style living room), so there is scope to personalise and improve the interior over time. The property is in an area with notable economic deprivation; local services vary and some nearby schools have mixed Ofsted ratings.
Overall this is a cost-effective choice for buyers prioritising location, low running costs and freehold tenure over larger living space. A straightforward refurb could increase comfort and long-term value.
